Abstract
To test the hypothesis that affective responses obtained from instruments measuring teachers' perception of students' maturity and students' own self-perceptions are correlated with scores on highly cognitive achievement tests, a step-wise regression analysis was applied to the scores obtained by beginning first graders on the Metropolitan Readiness Test, the Behavioral Maturity Scale, and the I Feel—Me Feel test. Only the teachers' perception of academic maturity as measured by the Behavioral Maturity Scale was a significant predictor ( p < .001).
